The two pie charts compare the percentage of certain types of jobs, categorized as manual and non-manual, held by men and women in Great Britain in 1992.
Overall, managerial and professional positions accounted for the largest share among females, while the highest figure among males was recorded for clerical jobs. Also of note is that males worked more in non-manual jobs, whereas females were more inclined towards manual jobs.
In 1992, the proportion of managerial and professional positions undertaken by both males and females was significantly high, at 29% and 36%, respectively. Meanwhile, merely 1% of men and 2% of women were general laborers, the lowest data points in the chart. Notably, both groups shared the comparable figure in other non-manual jobs (just under 10%) and other manual types (just over a quarter).
However, there were significant differences between the proportion of men and women doing the remaining two lines of work. 31% of men did clerical jobs, which was nearly six times higher than that of women. By contrast, while almost one-fourth of females had craft jobs, only 3% of males did this type of work.
